Abstract (EN)
We study incentive-compatible labor contracts in the case where both individual productivity and subjective discount rate are unobservable by the rm. We rst show that unidimensional manifolds of agents group on the same contract. High , low agents may choose the same contract as low , high agents. We show existence and uniqueness of an optimal wage function which is continuous and unbounded. This optimal wage function can be determined by the ironing procedure.
